Java has been the leading programming language for more than 20 years. However, many people still believe that Java is too complex, heavyweight and memory-hungry. Today, other languages and especially modern serverless approaches seem to overtake Java more and more. What are the plans for Java, is Java also suited for the cloud, what is coming next and, why should I continue to use Java in the future? Good news: The holy grail is already found! With GraalVM and a new generation of microservices frameworks, a completely new Java technology stack is emerging that will replace Java as we know it so far and bring Java to a completely new level and establish it in the cloud. Developing native applications with Java, app startup-time in milliseconds, minimal memory footprint, and database access up to 1000x faster. This is not a vision - it is already possible today. In this session, you will learn everything about the Java technology stack of the future and how you can use it to develop lightweight and at the same time ultra-fast cloud-native applications and microservices with Java. While watching our incredible performance demo, you better fasten your seatbelt.
